A cause of death hasn’t yet been publicly released, but Jones died at his home in Dutchess County, New York.Jones was born on January 17, 1931 in Arkabutla, Mississippi. He was considered to be one of the greatest actors of his era, and he was also one of the few who have ever won the EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony). During his long career, Jones earned two Emmy awards, a Grammy, and three Tony Awards as well as an honorary Academy Award in 2012.Prior to breaking into Hollywood, Jones made his Broadway debut in 1957 and established himself as a Shakespearean actor.

Destiny 2 has one of the best arsenals in gaming, and you can soon add another one of its Exotic weapons to your collection. For once, there’s some good news about a Destiny 2 Exotic being nerfed, because this toy version of the Ace of Spades hand cannon looks like a fantastic replica. It’ll be available first to Destiny 2 players who earn the Legend seal in the game, but everyone else can preorder it now for $50 ahead of its expected public shipping date in October.
Today marks the 10th anniversary of Destiny, and to celebrate, Bungie has begun revealing more details on the next era of the game and the more immediate rewards that players can expect starting today. The celebrations kick off with a wardrobe raid, as players can grab a set of armor for each class inspired by the original concept armor pieces for Destiny. These were some of the first Destiny armor sets ever seen publicly, and they can be obtained when exploring the surroundings of the old Tower in The Pale Heart. We’ve got a guide on where to find the Destiny anniversary armor to help you locate it all.
HBO’s Game of Thrones series was a pop culture phenomenon, winning 59 Primetime Emmys, becoming a merchandising juggernaut, and ushered in a generation of kids named “Khaleesi.” Replicas of various weapons and armor were sold throughout the years, but the time has come for fans to own their own piece of Westeros.More than 2,000 items, including the “shame” bell, Jamie Lannister’s Oathkeeper, numerous helmets, cloaks, and props are being distributed across 900 lots on the auction block through Heritage Auctions. The series of auctions will run through mid-October.If you’re not into armor or weapons, items such as dragon eggs from Season 1 are currently at $3,600. They would look great on a mantle or even a fireplace (just try not to get them too warm). If you’re looking for something even more subtle, costume jewelry is also up for grabs, even props that didn’t make the show.In the unaired pilot, Daenerys Targaryen wears this pair of tri-headed dragon brooches. Fans might note that Dany eventually wears a similarly designed pair of brooches when she is first presented to her betrothed, Khal Drogo (Jason Momoa).But for the go-big-or-go-home crowd, the armor worn by Conan Stevens, who…
In the 18 months since its release, Hogwarts Legacy has emerged as one of the biggest hits of Warner Bros. Discovery’s video game division. To date, 24 million copies of the game have been sold across all consoles and PC. Although a follow-up game hasn’t been formally announced, WBD isn’t being ambiguous about its plans. According to one executive with the company, getting a sequel to the Harry Potter-inspired title is at the top of WBD’s wish list.”[The video game industry] is, just like the film business, a hit-driven business,” explained WBD CFO Gunnar Weidenfels via The Hollywood Reporter. “Obviously a successor to Hogwarts Legacy is one of the biggest priorities in a couple years down the road.”Weidenfels didn’t offer any other details about a potential Hogwarts Legacy sequel, but his remarks seem to indicate that the next game is still years away at the earliest. The original game was developed by Avalanche Software and the story was set roughly a century before the life of Harry Potter. Players were given the freedom to create their own characters, who are students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and that proved to be very enticing to action RPG gamers.Unfortu…
After almost a decade since Hugh Jackman last portrayed Wolverine, he had to get back in prime shape. On his social media, the actor thanked his special team of trainers with creating his exercise and diet routine. There was also a special ingredient to making him look lean and glistening on camera when he wasn’t donning Wolverine’s yellow and blue costume: lube. “Honestly I just wanted to take a second to say yeah, I had to do those deadlifts and eat those meals but I had an incredible team that helped me,” Jackman said. He went on to name the eight people who helped him, mainly Beth Lewis who has worked with the X-Men actor before. Then there was Whitney, his makeup artist.

“She was called in to…put on, I don’t even know what it was, some kind of oil to make my skin glisten,” Jackman laughed. “You would hear Shawn Levy yell out ‘Fresh lube on Hugh!'” He also thanked Levy and Ryan Reynolds for being two of the best creatives he’s worked with and helping him make the mov…
Star Wars Outlaws is the first open-world Star Wars game ever, but it seems that this galactic low-life adventure isn’t quite living up to sales expectations. Ubisoft’s share price has fallen 12.6% since Outlaws released on August 27, and it now sits at the lowest level since 2015.Ubisoft’s sales target for Star Wars Outlaws is unclear–the company didn’t announce a public number–but the market results indicate that it’s not a hit. Per Reuters, JP Morgan analyst Daniel Kerven said that the game has “struggled to meet sales expectations despite positive critical reviews.” The analyst lowered his sales expectations for the game from 7.5 million to 5.5 million through March 2025, noting that Outlaws’ budget was at least 30% higher than last year’s Assassin’s Creed Mirage.

In 2021, Kathryn Hahn’s breakout role as Agatha Harkness in WandaVision helped pave the way towards getting her own show, Agatha All Along. And regardless of whether Agatha is the last witch standing on that series, it won’t be Hahn’s final appearance in the MCU.During an interview with ScreenRant, Agatha All Along executive producer Brad Winderbaum praised Hahn’s performance in the upcoming series and confirmed that she’ll be back in at least one episode of What If…? in Season 3.”When you have an icon like Kathryn Hahn [and what she] has brought to the screen with Agatha, you just want to see more of her,” said Winderbaum. “So yes, there will be more Agatha in the future [of] the MCU, yes. She is in an episode of What If…? Season 3–I shouldn’t say more, but it’s one of my favorite episodes ever done, and it may involve the giant musical number, and she’s just incredible, and we all want to see more of her.”Agatha All Along will get a two-episode premiere on Disney+ on September 18, but it’s not the only WandaVision spin-off on the way. Paul Bettany is set to reprise his role as Vision in his own Marvel series, opposite James Spader’s Ultron. The Vision series is expected to p…
The first clip from the highly anticipated Joker: Folie a Deux has arrived, showing Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker and Lady Gaga’s Harley having a moment while inside what appears to be Arkham Asylum.Harley says to Joker, “When I first saw Joker, when I saw you on Murray Franklin, the whole time I was watching, I kept thinking, ‘I hope this guy blows his brains out.’ And then you did. And for once in my life, I didn’t feel so alone anymore.”She’s referring to the pivotal sequence in the original Joker movie where Arthur Fleck murders Franklin (Robert De Niro) on a live TV broadcast of Franklin’s TV show. In Joker: Folie a Deux, Joker is seemingly on trial for that murder.At the end of the clip, Harley begins to sing “Get Happy” to Joker, and the two join in together just as the lyrics reach the line, “Get ready for the judgement day.” Here’s the clip:
